Chillicothe Holiday Lights

Chillicothe Included In 2024 Ohio Holiday Lights Trail

Article Presented By Kingston National Bank…

(Chillicothe) – Spectacular displays, dazzling drive-through shows, movie-worthy main streets, and one-of-a-kind traditions are all featured on TourismOhio’s 2024 Ohio Holiday Lights Trail. With 73 stops, this year’s trail brings together Ohio’s most beloved displays, including Chillicothe, inviting Ohioans and visitors to experience the brilliance of the holidays.

“If you’re looking to experience the magic of the season with the best light displays in the state, the Holiday Lights Trail is a great place to start,” said Governor Mike DeWine. “Following the trail gives families the opportunity to bundle up and explore some of the most enchanting holiday experiences in the heart of it all.”

The Ohio Holiday Lights Trail can be viewed online or downloaded on the Holidays in Ohio featured page on TourismOhio’s website Ohio.org.

“The magic of the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail lies in the dedication of the communities who help bring these displays to life,” said Lydia Mihalik, director of the Department of Development, which oversees TourismOhio. “Each display reflects the creativity and passion of the many Ohioans who are spreading holiday joy and helping families make memories together.”

Displays along the self-guided trail include the impressive seven million lights at Winterfest at Kings Island, the nationally recognized and locally beloved Steubenville Nutcracker Village, six beautifully lit botanical gardens to stroll through, five illuminated zoos to explore, and four merry museums and historic parks to wander.

Nearly all the displays have over 100,000 lights, with many exceeding one million.

Shine On Chillicothe is featured on the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail again this year. The local light display lights up Yoctangee Park with thousands of lights beginning on Friday, November 22, 2024, and continuing throughout the holiday season. The display continues to grow each year with the addition of more lights and bigger displays.

“We are thrilled to see Shine On Chillicothe continue to grow each year, becoming an even more dazzling celebration of the season for our community,” said Melody Young, Executive Director of the Ross-Chillicothe Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Being featured once again on the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail is a true honor and a testament to the dedication of the incredible volunteers who bring this beautiful display to life. It has become a cherished tradition to mark the beginning of the holiday season, bringing families and friends together to share in the magic and joy of the season.”

“Ohio’s Holiday Lights Trail is a twinkling treasure hunt full of festive surprises that light up the season in unexpected ways,” said Sarah Wickham, Ohio state tourism director. “It’s the perfect way for Ohioans and visitors to experience our state’s holiday spirit and make spirits bright, one sparkling light at a time.”

TourismOhio opens the call for applications for the Ohio Holiday Lights Trail annually in late summer. TourismOhio staff review each submission to ensure attractions meet trail criteria and that all regions of the state are well represented.

For even more festive holiday cheer, TourismOhio encourages Ohioans and visitors to download the newly released Ohio Holiday Events Guide. The guide spotlights five events from each of Ohio’s 88 counties.
